Erica Synths Syntrx II Overview

Musicians, producers, and sound designers looking for an inspirational audio synthesis playground will be thrilled with this USA-version of the erica synths SYNTRX II, a classic analog subtractive synthesizer that's inspired by the legendary EMS Synthi AKS. Although it is not a clone of the original Synthi, the SYNTRX II shares many design functions including the dedicated 16x16 analog patch matrix, which is similar to a patchable modular synthesizer, but without pins or patch cables.

The instrument offers many advanced features including an assignable and recordable joystick, allowing you to record and playback up to 8 seconds of joystick movement, a built-in envelope follower on input 1, and an inversion circuit on input 2. The patch matrix on the SYNTRX II can be used as a piano-roll sequencer that allows you to create up to 16-step sequences with notes within a 3 octave range. Additionally, you can record the delay time knob and two MIDI CC inputs to an 8-second motion sequencer. The SYNTRX II is designed to integrate deeply into contemporary electronic and experimental music setups and cover sonic territory from daunting drones, to powerful basslines, to glitched noisescapes.
